I am a 44-year-old engineer from Bilbao, a Basque speaker and a mother. I am passionate about Euskadi, its people and the values that identify us professionally, personally and, in short, as human beings. I have 7 years of experience in the field of technology, in ICT and customer service. I have dedicated 12 years to the intense and passionate municipal life as a Councillor of Bilbao City Council, trying to contribute to everything that would improve public services, the quality of life of the people and the competitiveness of the city. I was responsible for health, equality, international relations and the management of European funds. Later I moved to the Provincial Council of Bizkaia as Director General for Good Governance, Citizen Services and Digital Services I like challenges, learning new things, meeting different people and working in a team. My musts are my family, my friends, sports and moments alone. I would focus my mandate on digitalisation, re-industrialisation, competitiveness, reducing administrative burdens for agriculture and fisheries, unity in diversity, promoting minority languages… among others.
During the two days of 18–19 September in Belgrade, the European Democratic Party delivered a clear message
European Movement in Serbia, in collaboration with the European Democratic Party, is organising a public debate entitled “Serbia’s European Hour – Lost Time or New Opportunity?”
EDP MEPs in Paris with Gozi, Bayrou and Barrot: priorities for Strasbourg, governance reform, the cost of living, ecological transition and Europe’s global role
The Secretary General of the EDP and MEP for Renew Europe responds to the Serbian President’s letter: “It is not the citizens who are compromising Serbia’s European path, but its government, with violence, lies, and attacks on freedom.”
As part of our ongoing efforts to strengthen international cooperation between democratic forces, the EDP recently hosted a transatlantic dinner discussion in Paris, bringing together key figures from European and American centrist politics.
Thirty years ago, in Srebrenica, more than 8,000 Bosniak men and boys were murdered by the Bosnian Serb army. In 2007, the International Court of Justice ruled that the atrocities constituted genocide. The wider Bosnian War saw over 100,000 killed, thousands of women raped, and more than two million people forced from their homes between 1992 and 1995. On this solemn occasion remembering one of the darkest chapters in Europe’s recent history, the ALDE Party, LIBSEEN members in the region, ALDE in the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, European Democratic Party, Liberal International, LYMEC, Renew Europe in the Committee of the Regions, Renew Europe in the European Parliament, and the Young Democrats for Europe are united in honouring their memory and issue the following statement:
The outbreak of war between Iran, Israel and the United States has temporarily subsided, but the balance remains fragile.
The European Democratic Party co-organised and played a central role in the summit that brought together heads of state and party leaders from our democratic, liberal and centrist family at the Maison de la Poste in Brussels on 26 June. Sandro Gozi, Secretary General of the EDP, led the delegation of democrats and contributed to the adoption of the joint declaration “Freedom on the offensive”, a clear and courageous response to the populist wave and the threats to democracy in Europe.
